This was discussed in depth here, and on the QuantumHeat blog. Bob
Higgins commented at that time:

The way the signal behaved, it was strong in Spectrum-07, weak in
Spectrum-08, missing in Spectrum-09, and tiny in Spectrum-10. It did not
exist in Spectrum-06 at all. If it were a hot particle, it would have to
be moving around and blocking the gamma. That's an analysis crux. You
just don't get a smooth Bremsstrahlung with no gamma peaks from
radioisotopic contamination.
Another thing that has been mentioned is that the spectrum falls too
fast for Bremsstrahlung ... Well, that might be true if the
Bremsstrahlung came from a source of monochromatic electrons. But, if it
comes from beta emission, the beta energy falls off with energy AND the
Bremsstrahlung also falls off with energy, so the fast roll-off suggests
Bremsstrahlung from beta with a double roll-off.

There was also some numerical analysis of the curve shape, which I
cannot locate now. But if I recall correctly, it seemed to conform to
the curve derived by Befiki rather than a pure 1/f relation. There was
some consensus that it represented an inner Brehmsstralung mechanism,
based on the energy distribution.
@Jones - The curve for Spec7 as published is straight from experimental
data, as you should recall from my presentation at SRI, which you attended.

It is like both like a Maxwellian distribution and Bremstrahlung, but
neither of these give a 1/f^2 distribtion. If you overlay a 1/f^2 line
over the red dots the fit is perfect, indeed it is so good that it
almost looks as if that is how it was generated.

Looks quasi-Maxwellian to me.
Where is the inverse peak?

I have been looking at the graph titled
"After the MASSIVE broad band 'turn on' pulse, the excess heat
mode is
between 0 and 100KeV"
at
http://www.quantumheat.org/index.php/en/home/mfmp-blog/519-the-cookbook-is-in-the-signal
which shows the steady state gamma radiation from the Parkhomov-like
experiment, together with a plot of the gamma radiation that is seen
right at the start.
It appears that the initial gamma radiation obeys a perfect inverse
frequency squared law. I feel that this must be telling us something
about the underlying physics, but it is not clear what. I cannot
find
any other examples of inverse frequency squared emission of radiation.
Any ideas?
